Hello all!
This is a fairly straightforward question, I hope. I know that I can subscribe myself (or users) to a forum, so that when a new topic is created, I (or my users) are informed of this.
I also know that I can subscribe myself to any topic in which I have replied. (I have this set to default as an option.)
Here's where I'm not sure; there is a hidden part of my forums which is for the management team of an education charity. A good percentage of the team would never normally visit the forums. Now, I'm happy to subscribe them so that they are informed if any new topics are made. The thing is, what if there are replies made to this topic, but they haven't signed up to it? Will they receive notifications when a new post is made, or will they actually have to make a pointless post in order that they be subscribed and be made aware of further replies?
In other words, does subscribing to a forum so that you're informed of new topics mean that you're automatically subscribed to receive information of any replies made within that new topic?
Thanks,
Tim
